No More Bru Repatriation Exercise, Says Mizoram Government
The Mizoram government has decided that the ongoing Bru repatriation process should be the last one and no more such exercises would be carried out, officials said on Saturday.
Over 4,000 Bru displaced families, lodged in the relief camps in North Tripura district, are scheduled to return to neighbouring Mizoram during the repatriation process.
A meeting of the Mizoram Council of Ministers held on Friday decided not to conduct another repatriation exercise of Brus after completion of the ongoing repatriation process, the officials said.
The repatriation issued was deliberated in the meeting which was chaired by Chief Minister Zoramthanga.
The Tripura government should allow the Brus (known as Reangs in Tripura) to remain in the state.
